London Best Fish &amp; Chips

Rumor has it that only when dining by the ocean will you experience the true, spot-on flavors of the famous culinary delight, fish and chips.

When privileged to have a taste of what London Best Fish & Chips has to offer, you’ll discover that rumor stands corrected. Upon entering, I was suddenly walking along the coast—nets and seashells on one side, ships and lighthouses on the other, with ocean-blue walls and live fish (in a tank). There was only one thing missing: my beach towel. I ordered the appetizing, Today’s Special: Fish, Prawns and Zucchinis with Fries. It was special indeed; each item battered and deep-fried to perfection, with four condiments for dipping: tartar sauce, ranch, cocktail sauce and ketchup. Where else can you get an enticing meal and a message-in-a-bottle, seashore feeling? True to its name, London Best Fish & Chips serves up authentic British pub food to the Foothills. Go ahead—treat yourself to a day at the beach; you and your belly will be glad you did! London Best Fish & Chips, 1216 C Broadway Street, Placerville, 530-642-0777.
